Got home from work - shattered, fell asleep until 7.30pm - cooked tea and got massively into the tennis - could hear mobile ringing and ringing..... did not answer as did not want to be interrupted from Andy Murrey's very tense match! Mobile kept ringing, must be important - looked at 'missed calls' - 'Connor' OMG! looked very quickly at pager - BEE EATER 8.25pm, Back Lane, Pott Row!!!!!!!!!!! ARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!! Flew upstairs, threw top over slob dress I was wearing, grabbed bins, scope and camera - flew up the road to arrive at Back Lane in Pott Row, near Roydon to see Connor, James and Simeon, David N. etc searching for the Bee eater. Very, very sadly none of us saw it. I searched until dark. Back Lane is a very long lane which ends in a dead end - don't know whereabouts exactly it was seen in Back Lane - anyone else know anymore please? If it went to roost somewhere, maybe a look at first light in the morning - don't know if I have the mental energy to get up that early after the day I have had/heat.
